ENET JH234A-ENC

40GBASE-CR4 QSFP TO QSFP PAS Direct Attach Cable

A 1-meter 40G DAC cable for high-speed, short-reach connections.

Overview :

The ENET JH234A-ENC is a 1-meter passive Direct Attach Copper (DAC) cable designed to provide high-speed 40 Gigabit Ethernet connections between QSFP+ ports. Fully compatible with HPAruba X242 switches and similar QSFP+ hardware, it offers a cost-effective, low-latency solution for short-reach network interconnects in data center environments.

Features :

This DAC cable eliminates the need for optical transceivers by providing a direct QSFP+ to QSFP+ copper connection with minimal latency and power consumption. It supports the 40GBASE-CR4 standard, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of networking equipment. The 1-meter fixed length makes it ideal for interconnecting adjacent network equipment in racks or within the same rack space. With QSFP+ connectors on both ends, the cable is engineered for seamless plug-and-play deployment with HPAruba X242 series and other compatible QSFP+ devices. The passive design simplifies installation and maintenance while maintaining reliable signal integrity and data throughput.
